Seemingly making good on Showtime boss David Nevins' premonition, CBS Corp. chief executive Les Moonves told investors today that the upcoming eighth season of the Michael C. Hall-led series will be its last.

The cable network has yet to make an official announcment. Moonves' remarks came during a conference call as part of Deutsche Bank's 2013 dbAccess Media, Internet &Telecom Conference.

When asked during the 2013 Winter Press Tour about the future of the serial-killer thriller, Nevins promised that there was "a clear endgame in place; I just can't talk about it just yet. The decision of when to end Dexter is ultimately a creative decision and will be made on creative reasons."
